Since 2010, the respective competitive football clubs of the Emerald City Supporters and Timbers Army have met on the day before a match between the Seattle Sounders and the Portland Timbers to challenge each other in a series of competitive football matches. What started off as a single match in 2010 has grown into a full four-match (Over-40’s, Men’s II, Women’s, and Men’s I) series, expanding the opportunities for more supporters to become involved with playing their sport of choice while competing against their top rivals.
This series has served as an opportunity for members of the two respective supporter groups to take to the pitch in the name of their city, the professional club they support, and their fellow supporters.
